I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Schneider Electric (Manipal) in Jan 2016
Interview
My interview process was good, it was an on campus internship offer for the 8 semester students which may/may not convert into a full-time employment. Initially all the interested students whose CGPA above 7 have applied for the offer by submitting the resume, that was supposedly the first round of elimination hardly 10 people are shortlisted (only me from my branch Instrumentation and Control engineering). My interview was taken on Skype. A senior technical analyst of company have taken it.I was asked a few technical questions and my ongoing project, self introduction and finally my interests in the job. Why? A HR round was followed for the further shortlisted students and the offer letters were given.

One round of HireVue with basic questions like your interests, strengths, why Schneider. 1 minute for each.
Then one more round with the 2 senior leaders. That went quite smoothly because they seemed very kind and made you feel relaxed.

I applied online. I interviewed at Schneider Electric in May 2026

It was just one round with basic interview questions about previous experience, why this role, and asking me about my part-time experience. Why this role? accomplishments in previous jobs. The interviewer was very kind, and they said that there is only one round, and then the offer will be released

Question 1
Tell me about one of your part-time experiences during school and what you learned. List out your accomplishments
There was an online assessment with ~3 questions with ample time to answer. However, there was no feedback from the HR team of my response, which made me wonder if the slots were already filled.
